If you buy a web hosting server with the intention to start your individual web hosting company and to resell plans to various people, you may as well wish to sell domain names, to give your clients the chance to acquire everything they need for their new site from just a single place. Becoming an accredited registrar involves thousands of dollars along with a lot of documentation, so the simplest solution is to sign up for a domain name reseller account with a current registrar company. Your reseller Internet site will be linked to that account through the registrar's API. Employing this type of account has lots of advantages - all of your customers will be able to buy and to control new website names comfortably; the cost of a new registration will be lower as compared to what you would have to pay as an end customer; also you will be able to start reselling immediately. The registrar companies which sell domain reseller accounts in most cases need some money as a deposit.
